Company Profile

A German Odyssey

CS Group – Germany GmbH has been created end of 2011 in order to strengthen our collaboration with ESOC and EUMETSAT. In 2010 CS has been selected as frame contractor for the GFC8 and it has become obvious that it was necessary to have both management and development capabilities in the vicinity of the Agency on top of the needs to match German legal requirements (in particular AüG). After 8 years of existence, CS GmbH has now acquired the size and the capability of leading service team and large volume of activities on its own. CS GmbH, thanks to its subsidiary MOLTEK, is now composed of more than 70 team members.
